    One of my friends works for a finance group and makes over 150K per year but he spends like hell and is not better off than those who make half. :eek:

    So after a long wait I bring you the remaking of the speakers. Sorry it took so long to post the new update. I have been super side tracked with working and life in general.

    Also.... HUGE thanks to pitdogg2 in giving me a little something special (Interconnect cable) :smile:

    Oh and the receiver is what I have been powering the speakers with. For some reason, I feel like with the interconnect cable, the speakers sound different in a big way but I am not sure if it sounds better? Could just be me adjusting to them.

    I am currently waiting on getting some veneer to redo the cabinets and then I am doing to reshape the legs and make my own legs at my fathers metal fabrication shop.

    Question about adding veneer, is it better to get it with PSA on it or is it better to get it and glue it on with contact cement?
    Receiver: Denon 1912
    Speakers:
    Fronts: Polk Audio Monitor 70s (x2)
    Rears: Polk Audio Monitor 50 (x2)
    Center: Polk Audio Monitor 70

    Get paper backed veneer and either use contact or heat activated.
